tabbing from header to detail section

J

I have a form that has info in the header and info in the detail. I need to
be able to tab from the header to detail section. How is that done? If set
the sequence of tabbing but it just stays in the header and doesn't go into
the detail.

why not use the exit event from the last control of the headersection to go
to the detailsection like:

me.textboxindetailsection.setfocus

where textboxindetailsection should be replaced with you controlname.

Maurice's suggestion sounds like the best approach. Or you can have a small,
nearly invisible, unbound control as the last one in the tab sequence and
use the OnEnter event to set focus to the 1st control in the detail section.
That lets you move out of the last real control with the mouse, for example,
without forcing the focus change to the detail section.

The only other way I know is to use Ctrl-Tab to move to the next form
section.
